2017 Highlights: Foraging Nettles {Video}

In 2017, I headed to the woods frequently - for solitude, exercise, and wild food work with Foraged & Sown. Our farm goal is to bring something foraged to market every week, which means lots of time scouting and collecting.

Kate, my farm partner, took video during many of our visits to foraging sites this year. This nettle video is the first she produced. I love everything about it - the subject, the kids, the reminder that it may be snowy and cold outside now but days in lush warm woods will return.
